Do you think you get better at general puzzle solving by concentrating on one move at a time, at-the-moment thinking, the micro... and slowly the macro strategy emerges? or do you think it's a better cognitive strategy to focus on macro solutions first? how would this apply to other games? This happened to me while playing Columns... i only tried to survive moment to moment and all of a sudden i cant die. I had to turn the game off due to boredom. off topic, remember Solomon's Key?
